how to make leg loops loading bearing?

[raisins]

I'm considering an H2 or Tethrd Phantom in the near future. Going from a RC harness, I like the idea of load bearing leg loops.

Is there any easy way to accomplish this?

Perhaps the smallest aluminum, climb spec carabiner to attach leg loops to saddle?

I'm not sure that just changing the buckle would make them load bearing. If the manufacturer didn't plan on them being load bearing, then I would assume that the attachment point to the saddle wasn't necessarily designed to support a load either.

If load bearing leg straps are important I would consider the Aerohunter products.

The easiest way to accomplish it is to buy a New Tribes product. They have the best leg straps and buckles. But I am not concerned about load bearing buckles personally
